The Italian Electricity Market arises from Legislative Decree no. 79 of 16 March
1999 (Legislative Decree 79/99), which transposed the European Directive on the
internal market in electricity (96/92/EC) into the national legislation.
As in other international experiences, the creation of a market responds to two
specific requirements:
promoting competition in electricity generation, sale and purchase, under criteria
of neutrality, transparency and objectivity, through the creation of a marketplace;
ensuring the economic management of an adequate availability of ancillary services.
The Electricity Market consists of the Spot Electricity Market (MPE) and of the
Forward Electricity Market (MTE).
